Abstract:
The key question this thesis aims to address is to what extent can micro-generation sources contribute to the carbon emission reduction targets set by the UK government. The operational emissions of micro-CHP capable micro-generators were examined against the UK grid electricity and gas boiler heat. Fossil and biomass fuels were considered. The life-cycle emissions associated with the manufacturing, transport and disposal of micro-generators were calculated. Case studies were constructed, based on the literature. It was found that emissions associated with domestic electrical and thermal deman

Silicon and silicon-germanium nanostructures were grown, integrated, optimized and characterized for their application in thermoelectric generation. Specifically two kinds of nanostructures were worked: silicon and silicon-germanium nanowire arrays (Si/Si-Ge NW) and polycrystalline silicon nanotube fabrics (pSi NT). The results are dived in four chapters. Chapters 3, 4 and 5 deal with Si/Si-Ge NWs, while chapter 6 presents the pSi NT fabrics. In Chapter 3 the growth and integration of Si/Si-Ge NWs was studied, in order to optimize their properties for thermoelectric application in micro-th

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the dynamic behaviour and transients of a sub-system when operating in two scenarios: Grid-connected mode, and islanding mode. The sub-system consists of two distributed generators (DGs). One DG is modeled using a rotating synchronous machine fitted with a governor to represent a diesel generator, while the other is modeled using a DC voltage source and a converter to represent a photovoltaic (PV) energy source. The distribution network also consists of a grid connected source known as the main grid. During normal operation, the supply of electricity to the connected l

abstract: Energy harvesting from ambient is important to configuring Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) for environmental data collecting. In this work, highly flexible thermoelectric generators (TEGs) have been studied and fabricated to supply power to the wireless sensor notes used for data collecting in hot spring environment. The fabricated flexible TEGs can be easily deployed on the uneven surface of heated rocks at the rim of hot springs. By employing the temperature gradient between the hot rock surface and the air, these TEGs can generate power to extend the battery lifetime of the sensor

Abstract:
Conventional power system alone cannot meet the ever growing needs of electrical power in the world in a reliable manner. Under these circumstances, large penetration of Dis- tributed generators in the distribution level of the power system network is a great boon to the consumers. Due to the penetration of distributed generators (DGs) of large ca- pacities, the difference of current seen by protective relays, during faults in their primary and backup regions is considerable. As a result, the settings of the relay curve suitable for its primary region, is not capable of tripping within t

Abstract:
A reliable power is paramount and loss of power to communication equipment can mean loss of service to clients and loss of millions of dollars to industries. Also, climate is changing; greenhouse gas emissions from human activity are the major cause for global warming.
